TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – Jan. 6, 2016) – Nutritional High International Inc. (the “Company” or “Nutritional High“) (CSE:EAT)(OTCQB:SPLIF) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an equity purchase agreement (“EPA“) with Kodiak Capital Group LLC (“Kodiak“), pursuant to which Kodiak has agreed to purchase up to USD $1 million of Nutritional High’s common shares (“Common Shares“).

Pursuant to the terms of the EPA, the Company may, at its sole discretion and at any time prior to December 31, 2016 (“Commitment Period“), require Kodiak to purchase any amount of Common Shares of the Company in tranches up to USD $1 million, from treasury.
